Welcome to my weblog. Crochet is my passion and I talk about little else, much to my husband's dismay (hehehe). I tell him it's payback for all the computer game & sword stuff I have to listen to. :0) You might see family stuff here, too. I don't love only my hook LOL.

Mini Death Star
I was stumped for something to make for dh's cousin for his birthday. I know he's a big Star Wars fan, but the only Star Wars thing I've done the afghan. No way. I only had one day!!! Well, in a mad search through patterns, I came across a hackey sack pattern, done in thread that I had originally intended to be a golden snitch. Well, done in worsted weight yarn instead of #10 thread made it about the size of a softball. I added details in black done with a back stitch and Voila!!!! A miniature Death Star. I sure wish I could get some of these ideas to George Lucas and get permission to use these designs to sell and stuff.
Now I just have to find a box to wrap this thing in.
